Parm "skin" Salmon

Ok, I know how the vote went, my shrimp weren't ready to go but my salmon was so that's what I went with.  And I was in a hurry and this is what I came up with last night.  I probably won't put recipes this short but I do want to prove that a very nice meal doesn't have to take more than 15/20 minutes.  When you get home from work, if you don't have to thaw anything this dish can be made under 15 minutes. Here's what you need:

Equipmonk:
Frying pan with decent sides
Spatula or fish turner
2 (count em) 2 bowls

Ingredients:
1 egg
2 pieces of salmon 
1 cup Panko bread crumbs (any bread crumbs will work but these coat food better)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheeZe 
1/3 cup Olive Oil
Salt/pepper


Here we go:
-Add oil to the pan put on high heat and let it sit until later, we want it to burn off.

Quick note, flavored olive oils are nice to use as finishers, they don't really add much flavor when you cook in it.  Tip #5: use regular olive oil when frying EVOO (thanks Rachael Ray) causes more smoke.

If you want to add some sort of veggies to cook, throw em in, Kale works nicely, you get that crunch across the dinner just make sure you stir what ever it is you cook, don't burn it. but they can cook while you do the rest.

In one bowl:
-beat the egg, doesn't have to be hard just enough as if you were making scrambled eggs

In the other bowl:
-add bread crumbs, parm, and salt and pepper
This is a good time to use Tip #2, If you like the mix good if not, add more salt, pepper, parm, what ever you think, it's your dinner

Take the salmon 
-make sure the salmon's patted dry, dip one side in the egg then the same side in the bread crumb mixture

Here's where it gets interesting, why I call it "skin" not crusted

(remove any vegetables)
once the pan has pretty much dried up from the oil 
-Turn the heat down to medium
-add the salmons "skin" side down
-when it's crusty, about 4/5 minutes, flip em over, another 4/5 minutes and you're done

A common problem with salmon is people wait to finish cooking the salmon when they see the little white bubbles, THIS MEANS ITS OVER COOKED, you want the whole salmon to be almost opaque pink, not white



That's pretty much it. Remember on all ingredients, Tip #1 fresh shredded parm, fresh salmon and so on.
Don't worry the shrimp will get done tomorrow.  I need to rework the recipe tonight but it's good mang.

Tip summary:
#5  use regular olive oil when frying, EVOO causes more smoke
